Ok, I'll go for something like the following:

    if (led_classdev_register(&pdev->dev, &ts5500_led_cdev))
            dev_warn(ts5500_led_cdev.dev, "failed to register the LED\n");
    if (ts5500->adc) {
            ts5500_adc_pdev.dev.parent = &pdev->dev;
            if (platform_device_register(&ts5500_adc_pdev))
                    dev_warn(&ts5500_adc_pdev.dev,
                             "failed to register the A/D converter\n");
    }

Thanks,
